Idaho Falls Power is a municipal electric utility serving the city of Idaho Falls, Idaho. Since 1900, our mission has been to deliver low-cost electricity to residents and businesses. We have done this by harnessing the power of the Snake River to produce clean, reliable, hydropower. Idaho Falls owns and operates five hydropower plants that deliver about one-third of the city’s electricity needs.
In addition to the generation and transmission of electricity to homes and businesses, Idaho Falls Power offers a number of programs and services that benefit customers and the community. This includes the Idaho Falls Fiber Optic Network, which delivers high-speed, affordable, internet capability for homes and businesses.
The Peaking Plant project continues to make impressive strides. Here's a look at the latest developments and what’s in store for the coming weeks.
Idaho Falls Power and the Idaho National Laboratory (INL), with support from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Water Power Technologies Office, have unveiled a new interactive exhibit in the city’s Heritage Park. The exhibit will promote understanding of hydropower and its importance to regional power generation.
Tourists, residents, boaters, and outdoor enthusiasts are advised that water levels on the Snake River near the City Plant in Idaho Falls will be temporarily lowered starting the week of September 22 to allow for an underwater inspection of the hydroelectric facilities at the City Plant. The inspection is anticipated to last several days.
Idaho Falls Power offers several energy-saving programs for residential and business customers. These programs help customers save money by eliminating wasted energy and reducing the cost of energy-efficient products and/or services. Whether it’s implementing energy conservation measures or installing efficient appliances and heating systems, we have the solutions to help Idaho Falls residents and businesses achieve significant energy reduction and savings.
